Fireworks @ White Oak
This has probably already been brought up and I missed it, but are the folks that live on the ridge beside White Oak going to have their fireworks
display this year? If so, does anybody know which night? We had a great time watching it from the water last summer.

I'm planning vacation for the 4th and since it falls on Wed. I was wondering if anyone new when Jamestown/State Dock would be doing their display. And
more important Reedaville are you putting up a display and if so what night? I enjoy your show the best cause it's close to home port and not so many
boats to deal with after it's over. Thanks. |
At this point the celebration is leaning toward the 7th, but stay tuned! Seems like the number of boats viewing from the water is growing each year.
Last year it seemed there was an impressive number of boats watching from below
|
Where is Reedaville's fireworks? |
Across from Conley and slightly east--just look for Old Glory waving proudly. |
WHATEVER floats your boat Dude!

Fireworks are planned for the Saturday the 7th across the lake from Conley atop the hill where Old Glory is prominent. This display has grown in
popularity over the years so there is some interest to not disappoint
This could change due to the extremely dry conditions and of course any official bans that may be put in place by authorities.
Sorry I cannot be more precise at the moment.
I apologize that I have been away from the forum for a bit as I believed it to be "in-transition" and thus off-line. For some reason I cannot access
LC.com with Internet Explorer but can with GChrome as I just discovered.
I will provide an update later in the week.
Cheers!

Thanks for the update Reedaville and thanks for the great displays! 
We never really grow up; we only learn how to act in public.

Hey Reedaville, we'll be below ol' glory in anticipation. Hope you can pull it off again. If not, there will be lots of women and orphans severly
disappointed, but no pressure.  Thanks, Phil

Great to hear Reedaville! We are straight across from you on the ridge at Conley and we enjoy your display every year! Several years ago we tried to
keep up with you, but you won! We will be watching again this year!

Hey Additiction you guys on the south shore provide a pretty good show yourselves! The folks that won (and win) are those on their boats seeing the
best of both sides! It's great to see all of the boats on the water at the "show". We should double the admission price--oh wait it's free!
Technically then I guess we could still double it

People keep mentioning the location across from Conley. If I'm not mistaken it's called Rankin Knob
